Alfatina Anti-cup. The Original Ad
« on: February 23, 2008, 05:39:55 pm »

We are the Alfatinis, little girls and boys
Make your requests, we'll not refuse you
We are here just to amuse you
Would you like a song or story?
Will you share our joys?
At games and sports we're more than keen
No merrier children could be seen
Because we all drink gasoline
We're happy girls and boys.


A fine little ditty there Pete. It was strangely familiar though, and I tried with some effort to jog my memory. I think it originally had something to do with a malt based bedtime drink or some such concoction. That, however, was as much as my memory would allow.

Not to be deterred, I tried to remember back to my childhood and any malt drinks just prior to bedtime. Then it all came back to me! Half a pint of a fine 10 year old single malt usually knocked me out cold and left my parents to a nice peacful night by the fire to watch their favourite television programmes undisturbed.

Anyway, enough reminiscing - After some painstaking research, I even found the original advertisement for the Alfatina Anticup. It seems it has all been done before.

You have to feel a little sorry for Shedz 'n' Sh1te Enterprises, who probably thought they had an original idea. Tough luck lads. :biggrin:

yup, I still use the fine malt to knock my youngest out, I'd have to hit the teenager on the head with the glass jar to get her to go to sleep!!!

Hehe, thanks guys. After Pete's little parody, it just had to be done, and it whiled away a bit of time on a pretty much lazy afternoon. :)
